You can then use Clyp-it to load if you want - press the Orange upload button - the file hou’ve recorded will appear - I’ve just tried it and it works no problem.
Thanks for trying so hard to help, @rich, but we have now had to give up on both SoundCloud and Clyp-it as they give people too many problems.
Our Tech Developer has created our own in-house recording tool, and a small band of brave 6 Minuters are testing it now. Once it’s passed the test, we’ll make it available for general use. Until then, we’re just advising people to do the tasks up to the recording part, then skip it and wait for the new recording tool announcement.
OK. To be honest they all work - pure curiosity has driven me to try them in my tea breaks… But it sounds like we have something better coming down the line…which can only be a good thing!
@Deborah-SSi is saying ‘hang fire’ - see her post above - so it sounds like you could wait if you want to (i hadn’t quite finished although the original instructions do cover the very end bit I think)
Da iawn @sandy-mather! That first word is just for you to practise using the recording software and hearing yourself speaking Welsh, so it doesn’t need to go anywhere specific. When you reach the ‘sentences’ task, you’ll be given a link to the place on the forum where the recording goes.
Diolch @ Deborah-SSi! I had to laugh when you said, hearing yourself, because it sounds like I’m speaking underwater At least my Welsh friends in the village say they can understand me
Diolch eto!
I’ve now tried to confirm my email address - it keeps going back to unverified. I can’t record a sound file as it tells me that access to the microphone is denied.
